Delivery note for six pairs of gateposts from Endon Quarry, sent to Mr Richard Carter at Little Budworth, who I thnk was a land agent. The goods were despatched for William Clayton of Swanscoe who was the quarry owner as well as operating the Swanscoe Colliery. Transport would have involved being brought down from the quarry on Clayton's tramroad and inclined plane to the canal where it was loaded onto a narrowboat for shipping to Middlewich Wharf on the Trent and Mersey Canal. Onward carriage was by cart via Winsford. The signature at the bottom is that of the Middlewich wharfinger who took delivery from the boat two days after it was loaded at Kerridge. Each post weighed just a little less than half a ton so I suspect that the wharf crane was in order to offload them.
